How your time zone was detected

Your browser reports its configured time zone directly (the same setting your operating system uses), so this is read straight from your device rather than guessed from your IP address or location. The IANA identifier (like "America/New_York") is the standard, unambiguous name used by virtually all computer systems to represent a time zone including its daylight saving rules.

Need to check somewhere else's time instead? Use the world clock, or compare several places at once on the time zone compare page.

Is this based on my IP address or location?

No — it's read directly from your browser/device's own time zone setting, which is generally far more accurate than an IP-based guess.

What if my computer's time zone is set wrong?

This page will reflect whatever your device is set to. Check your operating system's date & time settings if it looks incorrect.

What does the UTC offset mean?

It's how many hours (and sometimes minutes) your time zone is ahead of or behind Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) right now — this shifts through the year in zones that observe daylight saving.

What the detected setting tells you

The zone identifier comes from your browser configuration, not GPS. It can reflect a manually selected setting or a privacy preference. An IANA identifier such as America/New_York describes a set of rules; UTC−04:00 describes only an offset at a particular instant.

The comparison table is a snapshot when this page loads. Reload for an updated comparison. For a date later in the year, use the date-aware converter because daylight-saving rules may change the difference between cities.
